Upcycling examples
- Doilies can be used as appliqués or turned into lace cuffs.
- Outdated men's coats and tweed blazers can be turned into vests and newsboy's caps or cut into flower shapes, which can be used to decorate a plain coat or sweater.
- Men's cotton shirts can be cut up for various purposes. 100 percent cotton shirts can become quilt projects, or shirt collars or sleeves can be replaced with a different style.
- Even limited sewing skills can go a long way. Replacing standard buttons can make a dull jacket special.
